MartinGers93 388 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I thought it was the quietest Champions League game I have ever watched. It was terrible also considering Villareal had an away support of 17 I thought the Man City fans were almost silent and were dead silent for a good 15-20 mins after Villareal scored and you got the odd half hearted "c'mon City" every so often from then on in. Pishy pishy support last night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferdasyn 431 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Aye, but, but Rangers only had 27000 for a friendly so there! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrms999 22 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 If you remember the time we played Villareal and the fallout we took for our behaviour its so ironic that Man City aren't in the shit for their fans throwing their paper cards on to the pitch Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper 155 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 English fans in genral are shit imo. Was it Chelsea that were playing recently, and when they scored an equaliser in the last minute, the fans just stood about shaking each others hands Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrangemouthRSC 832 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 They should have a case to answer from EUFA for the player getting pelted with objects as he tried to take a corner.But of course EUFA would never take on Man City in a court.

marmalade1872 40 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 been in old trafford and eastlands many times and it never gets to the decibel level of an old firm game Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdocherty72 215 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 English team's atmosphere's in the league and Europe are shit compared to Old Firm games or European Rangers games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Sasac 164 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 my local team Tranmere and most lower league teams have hardcore loyal support, couldnt believe last night last min goal celebrated by some of there fans as a pre-season goal.That's what I noticed as well. Came from behind in the Champions League to score a last minute goal, and half them just slowly stood up and applauded. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithgersbear 3,225 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Don't forget Arsenal, arguably the worst support I've ever seen.The Emirates is only good during the big games. Shyte for the rest and far too many subway supporters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev20971 0 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 the atmosphere wasn't too bad at Eastlands last night , no away fans (or not many 17 / 25 ?) going a goal down in the first 5 mins , don't know about the last goal celebrations in the other parts of the ground but around me it was mad, looks like this thread is just a dig at City by the bunch of plastic united fans Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alstone 374 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Was saying this, the man city support are wank! I remember they were in the europa league and the stadium was nearly empty, whats the point in injecting all these millions into a team who have a shite support? There are several other teams in the leauge and lower leagues who would have supporters filling the stadium on champions league nights for sure had they been put in the situation man city found themselves in!
